President Reagan, that is. You know, the Republican poster boy for all things right, true and just about America.

In 1987, Reagan signed the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty with Russian Secretary General, Mikhail Gorbachev, which resulted in the destruction of a total of 2,692 missiles, 846 by the U.S. and 1,846 by the Soviet Union.

In his memoirs, President Reagan wrote: "For the eight years I was president, I never let my dream of a nuclear-free world fade from my mind."

This week President Obama signed a similar, albeit much more modest, agreement with Russia, which limits each side to 1,550 strategic nuclear weapons deployed and ready to fire, still many times that needed to destroy the planet about seven times over.

American brain trust and well-know wolf slayer Sarah Palin had this to say: "It's unbelievable. No administration in America's history would, I think, ever have considered such a step that we just found out President Obama is supporting today.”

While Rudy Giuliani derided the idea of a nuclear-free world as "a 60-year dream of the left."

Are you spinning in your grave yet, Ronnie?

###Anyone care that Lindsay Lohan’s dad, most recently in the news for being accused of punching his last girlfriend in the vagina, is engaged to John Gosselin’s ex Kate Major who also used to be Lindsay’s assistant? Yeah, me neither, but it does give us just a little more insight into why this young woman may be so screwed up.

Continuing with what passes for entertainment these days…

According to the recent edition of Forbes Magazine, Faux News entertainer, Glenn Beck made $32 million in 2009 and you know what? Good for him. He worked hard, made a success of himself and that’s the American way.

Beck told Forbes that he is more interested in the business than the politics of what he does. "I could give a flying crap about the political process," he said. "We're an entertainment company."

Finally, some words of truth out of Beck’s mouth. What they do at Faux is not news. It is pure, unadulterated entertainment and should be taken as such and no more. Break open a beer, sit back and enjoy the fun, that is if you like your entertainment racist, bigoted, and sprinkled with calls to violence.

Personally, I’ll take a good lesbian, bondage club any day…

Yes, this week it was revealed that members of the RNC – the party of family values – spent nearly $2,000 of donors' money at “Voyeur” a West Hollywood club that features an S&M bondage-design theme complete with a net suspended from the ceiling where topless women perform, and a glass booth where even more X-rated fun can be viewed.

While most of the reaction has been critical, it has garnered the GOP a new supporter. Porn star, Stormy Daniels, a potential candidate for the U.S. Senate in Louisiana, has decided to renounce the Democratic Party and become a Republican saying in a press release that she sees the RNC-funded outing as a sign that the GOP’s values now best match her own. "I know from experience that a mere $1900 outlay at a club with the reputation of Voyeur is a clear indication of a frugal investment with a keen eye toward maximum return," Daniels added.

Now there’s a Republican I could vote for.

Then there’s this little gem…

Remember the self-described “Christian warriors” who were arrested recently in Detroit for plotting to violently bring down the U.S. government?

They’ve all asked for public defenders.

On a more upbeat note, our congratulations go out to screen star legend, Elizabeth Taylor, who is engaged to be married for the ninth time.

The 78-year-old is engaged to 49-year-old Jason Winters of Sterling Winters Management, the management team for Janet Jackson. Taylor has recently called Winters, “one of the most wonderful men I’ve ever known.”

You go girl! Oh, wait… Oh my God! HE’S BLAAAAAACK!!!

Finally, this week’s WTF Award goes to Nike…

In what’s got to be the most creepy, weird moment of the week, Nike launched this ad apparently in an effort to make us believe that Tiger was getting an ass-whooping from his dead dad:
